Hey. That looks pretty good to me. Are the shroud graphics just stickers and not a retail graphics product?

The number plate looks good. Good job.

Thanks for letting me know about the graphics.

Here is a hint, don't say it is to look like a MX bike, say you are setting it up to be EVEN better for enduros or hare scrambles. :grin:

It was just a joke. Maybe someone will ask what an enduro or hare scramble is, instead of trying to bash you for trying to make a trail bike look like a MX bike.

Good job on the bracket for the front numberplate.

lol, I wasn't bashing, just genuinely curious. I've seen a few KDX's set up for MX racing.

Oh, no way was I talking about someone on here, but someone of his age group. It was more of a "just in case".

I am usually not too big on making a trail bike look like an MX bike, for appearance's sake, but this particular bike looks good to me.

allaire74, I agree that some black fork boots would tie it all together better. Look for some Daystar brand fork boots. The model number is 69. They make black and a lot of other colors. I have a couple of sets of them, and they are a very good brand.

Yeah, I figured so, just clarifying for his sake. I wasn't being a smartass, for once. :lol:

I agree, the bike looks sharp. The graphics look great, and it looks well cared for. Good work!

Well thanks for the complements and I am looking for some good fork boots. I mainly went with the MX look though because I trail ride and only during day light unless I'm on a wheeler and I gotta buddy with a cr 250 who wants to hit the tracks with me. My headlight was also faded badly and i didn't wanna spend the money on something new that wasn't gonna be used

I don't get a chance to ride at night, so I don't have a need for a headlight or taillight either.

I flipped my '87 KDX200 and cracked the headlight shell on it. I wish I had a numberplate back then (this is around 1988).

What the heck is a wheeler??

I know it is but how does that show how old I am I've met people in college who have a high voice. How old do you think I am exactly?

Actually I'm not even quite 16 yet almost. I was just given you a hard time :lol: and now but i consider a kid in the how mature they are not by age. Cause I did everything on that bike my self and was raised to know how to live on my own so I don't act like a kid even though I may be one technically. Just to clear things up though I'm not trying to give you a hard time just stating my opinion cause I dont really like to be called a kid.
